The secret to be a rich man

An American businessman was standing at the dock in a coastal village in Mexico when a small boat that the boat contained only one fisherman docked.

In the boat there are some yellow fin tuna. The American complimented the Mexican fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it takes to catch it.

Mexico fisherman replied, "Just a moment."
Furthermore, the American was asked why he did not stay at sea for longer in order to catch more fish.

Mexican fisherman replied that he carried was enough to be able to meet the needs of this family.

Then, Americans were asked, "But, what you do with your remaining time?"

The Mexican fisherman said, "I sleep late, fish a while, playing with my children, take a nap with my wife, stroll to the village eraser night to pick the wine and play guitar with my friends. I have a full life and busy, sir, "

The Americans were jeered, "I am an MBA graduate of Harvard and can help you. You should use more time to catch fish. With the profits from it, you can buy a boat that is more bigger. You can buy several boats again. In the end , you will have a fleet of fishing boats. Rather than sell the fish catch to the middleman, you can sell directly on the fish processing factory, and finally, you can open their own canning business. You would control the product, processing and distribution.

Later, you have to leave this small coastal village and move to mexico city, then to Los Angeles, and finally, to new york, and you will run your own company's growing. "
The Mexican fisherman asked, "But sir, how much time is needed for this?"

"Millions, sir? And for what?

The American said, "Then you would retire. Moved to a small beach town so you can sleep late, fish a little, play with the kids, enjoying a siesta with your wife, stroll kedesa at night and picking grapes and playing guitar with his friends. "

The story above given explanations by Danah Zohar as follows:
We can easily see that the American entrepreneur in this story are spiritually ignorant, while fishing mexico is intelligent. Why? The fishermen have an intelligent understanding of his own life purpose it deems important, the most in his own motivations. he underwent a lifestyle that can meet the needs of himself and his family, he took the time to the things that mattered to him, he felt at peace, he concentrated.

American businessman, by contrast, is a child of his own culture who are spiritually ignorant. he was ambitious, he must accomplish something for the sake of the achievement itself, he does not come into contact with things in life that can give a deep motivation to someone like a fisherman, he had absorbed the ideals not only significant because of the ideals that he learned at Harvard . Fishermen are likely to be long-lived and ultimately died in peace. Instead the entrepreneur will have a heart attack at age 55 years and died with a sense of sadness that he never managed to achieve his goal.
